My Cynocephaly Was Lost But Now He's Found

I adore this, where was this when I was super geeky about mythology in 6th grade?

Haha this website is awesome and full of useful tips. Check it out!

Babysittin' Blues

I'm going to Rehab tonight. For either free or cheap PBR. Right now we're watching 'Adventures in Babysitting', I love this movie so much. It just brings a smile to my face. So things feel pretty good right now, I'm excited to be putting together a plan to move back, Suzy is gonna be moving in so worrying about finding someone to take over my room is no longer stressing me out, and yeah I'm gonna be back in AZ soon. I need to shower soon because my hair looks worse than an oil spill. (I just realized I could've been really cheesy and titled the post 'they Tried to Make Me Go To Rehab, and I said Okay')

Fish eggs in a tube.

Isabelle got some fish eggs in a tube yesterday. Josh and I are grossed out. We're watching a Swedish cooking show right now and it's very fun to watch, she's cooking outside and she's adorable. I'm so hungry. Liz and Kit's party last night was pretty awesome. I picked them up from downtown and I prepared the candles. They had an awesome spread of food, I was particularly fond of the baked brie and this roasted red pepper dip. Mmmm I think I dreamed about it. But I also dreamed that I was on a ship and for some reason I'd bought Nicole Richie a $7,000 camera for her birthday. It was weird. And then Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz showed up and I thought they were a cute couple. Oddly enough this is the second time in like a month that they've been in my dream and been really cool while I hung out with them. Last time was at a party/sale in a clothing store. There was some other things going on but I can't recall them. After Liz's I went and hung out with my friend Steve since he lives in Rogers Park as well. We watched a bit of The Matrix, Beetlejuice and then an entire Nova about apes. I completely forgot everything I learned about the difference, and that there IS a difference, between monkeys and apes. I feel idiotic now. The Oscars are on tonight! I just wish I had a pizza to go with it. Right now Ian and Josh are debating the merits of Grindhouse. Ooh there's steak on the tv. Alright that's it for now.

What does persimmon taste like?

Anyone?

Throwback backthrow.

I'm watching 'My Girl' right now waiting for Suzy to come over. I love this movie very much and it totally makes me feel nostalgic about riding my bike around the neighborhood in France. It's so very cold outside and I just wanna stay warm and cozy inside until it passes, but I think I'd be in bed for a month. As much as I like sleeping I don't like it that much and after the first couple days I think of I would tire of it. Well the apartment is clean again after about a week of living in squalor, it amazes me how many dishes accumulate between three people, or maybe it just feels that way without a dishwasher. One thing I am definitely going to require in AZ is a dishwasher. Well nothing more to say here unfortunately, toodles.

Ew.

My birthday is coming up you know.

Your pad or mine?

Oh, Alton Brown. He was making Pad Thai and now he's making sushi. Pad Thai requires an awful lot of effort. Especially since it isn't my favorite Thai dish. Isabelle's made biscuits. So thanks to the lovely windchill factor, tonight and into tomorrow morning it's gonna feel like 20-30 below zero. Yeesh. That's all I have to say to that and thank god my appointment isn't till the afternoon, I might murder someone or myself otherwise. I really ought to shower at some point but uggghhhh. I'm almost done with 'Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim', funny stuff. Trying to decide what to read next. I'm thinking 'American Psycho' since this weather has me feeling violent and crazy. Oh and Allison I'm drawing ever closer to the 200 post mark.

Who turned on the cold switch?

I want them arrested. I've been back in Chicago for less than a week but it feels like (exaggeration warning) a gabillion because it is so damn cold. Um Valentine's Day was Ian and the Astro Physicist and Sugarfoot's show and that was highly enjoyable, we got White Castle afterwards, oh so good. Then Friday I went over to Paul's to give him his painting and we had a couple beers and a pizza and watched a Blaxploitation movie called 'Darktown Strutters' which was about a chick motorcycle gang and uhh black people are disappearing and there's this Colonel Sanders villain character who is cloning black people. Hilarious needless to say, then we watched some Wonder Showzen and the Mighty Boosh, and our favorite parts from 'Fright Night'. Fun stuff. Then Saturday I made appointments and went to a party that Sugarfoot was playing at. Stood around and then went home. Slept pretty much all Sunday cause I wasn't feeling like being awake or alive (melodramatic). Ummm oh Suzy came over and we watched 'The Hudsucker Proxy', 'Bright Young Things', and 'Fellowship of the Ring'. I slept terribly so ugh. Then we drove downtown so Suzy could pick up some things and she got me some sunglasses. And then a turkey club panini from Corner Bakery mmmmmm and then a sweet cheese croissant and cookie afterwards. Came back and uhhh now I'm nibbling at a chocolate cake watching 'Sex and the City' wearing really nerdy glasses. I think I'll sleep better tonight, I'm really looking forward to just listening to some music and reading, especially since it's 8 degrees outside. I wish I had something more interesting to say other than recapping my weekend. I miss Arizona, I can't wait to come back. K, I got nothin else to say.

Woo pseudo internet fame!

So check it out, the picture of a bad parking job that I sent in was posted today, makes it extra special since it's on a "holiday".

Game on.

So Allison is excited about almost getting to her hundredth post, so I wanna get to my two hundredth before her. Overly competitive in things that don't matter? Why yes I am. I'm watching 'Make Me A Supermodel' and I feel dirty since I've been watching reality shows all night. I didn't watch any in Arizona as per Mom's request. So I'm overdosing on them now. Isabelle make cupcake/muffins cuffins I call them. And they exploded out of their pockets and onto the side, covering the entire cupcake pan. They smell awesome though. I'm gonna have Suzy braid my hair again so I can have it wavy for VD-day. Speaking of which I'm totally buying myself a box of chocolates, after all they say you have to love yourself before anyone else can, so I'll be my own Valentine.

Hillz.

Just watched 'The Englishman Who Went Up A Hill and Came Down A Mountain' and Hugh Grant is just so good at bumbling around. Hurrah. Um I don't have much else to say other than fuck it's cold and fuck it's nice to be sleep in my bed again.

Ch-Ch-Changes

Possibility of big changes in my life, just have to wait and see how I feel about certain things, but I'm pretty sure about this. How much more vague can I be.

Of Puppy Bowls and Marriage Proposal

Sorry I haven't blogged the two of you that read this that I'm not currently staying with. Well, it's good to be home, it already feels like it's gonna be over too soon. So, well, Thursday night I got myself into a bit of a pickle. I went out to a bar with Nick Quint, my ex from a million years ago, and we were having fun and I was getting drunk since I wasn't driving and suddenly I'm writing out a prenuptial agreement with this guy whose name I couldn't remember at the time. Had courts been open or this was Vegas, I think I might be married right now, cause at the time it sounded like a hilariously splendid idea. Anyways aside from that madness, Puppy Bowl IV was on today! It was amazing. Youtube it! You won't be disappointed. I just painted my nails and uh I've discovered that no matter where you go there are douchebags. That's my profound thought of the week combined with useless information. But which is which?
